Kya Kya Ba-Dast-E-Ghaib Sabhi Ne Liya Na Tha

kya kya ba-dast-e-ghaib sabhi ne liya na tha

lekin miri vafa ka koi bhi sila na tha

avaza-e-raqib se uljhe hain baar baar

tujh se shikayaton ka magar hausla na tha

us ki navazishon pe na itrao dosto

mujh par karam vo tha ki kisi par hua na tha

lete hain baar baar vo aise ḳhuda ka naam

duniya men jaise aur kisi ka ḳhuda na tha

raste dayar-e-dil ke bhi kitne ajiib the

sab rah-rau the koi yahan rahnuma na tha

dil ne to apni baat kahi sab ke ru-ba-ru

dil tha munafiqat se kabhi ashna na tha

shisha-garon ne us ki basirat bhi chhin li

ankhen thiin us ke paas magar dekhta na tha

nadida manzilon ke musafir the kitne log

chalna tha jin ka kaam magar aasra na tha

kya bujh ga.e the mere hi ghar ke sabhi charagh

ya shahr bhar men diya bhi jala na tha

us gul ka ab-o-rang hi tha ru-kash-e-bahar

jo gul darun-e-shaḳh tha lekin khila na tha

qatil to aur bhi the bahut shahr-e-dard men

tujh sa magar ‘jamil’ koi dusra na tha
